I totally agree, that the exact same color can appear completely different depending on the colors that surround it, meaning that you always have to look at a color in context with the other colors.By using the color wheel it becomes easier to understand the relationships between those colors including locating a color's compliment. Knowing this complimentary color is essential for the painting process in order to get a harmonious color balance in the painting.As an artist, this is useful for me

BORING!

If we mix red blue and green paint, we wont get white, correct? Because I dont think I've ever seen that with paint.

[redgator12]

You don't need to look at a color wheel to find complimentary colors. The way you find a complimentary to a color is by taking any of the primary colors, singling whatever you want out, then adding the other two together.

So if you want the complimentary of Red, you take away Blue and Yellow, which mix into Green, Red's compliment.

Y = B+R = Purple

B = R+Y = Orange.

It's as simple as that.

If you want on for secondary, take the mixed colors apart and see what's left, that's it.

Does anyone know what colour you get when you mix Olive Green and Greyish Blue?

Visit the virtuosoism channel to view new colorized electronic sheet music which correlates the artists color wheel to the musical Circle of 5ths. In this format, the language of color perfectly describes all relationships between musical tones. Through the applied color, reading music is now immediately accessible to anyone regardless of experience. It is an invaluablenew tool for the visual artist to see color relationships through the medium of music.

on 0:50 i can not see the difference between those little rectangles. They are the same color.

[woodykeller]

@Djole0  You may have colorblindness then. They should appear differently to the normal eye.

[miceskin]

@woodykeller what a terrible way to find out your colorblind. :(

[CRIMSONxFROST]

wait, I thought red, GREEN, and blue were primaries, not red YELLOW, and blue :\

[PhreelanceSF]

@CRIMSONxFROST

There is a famous painting called: "Who is afraid of Red, Yellow and Blue".

When you mix blue and yellow you get green.

You cannot get yellow out of green.

So yellow is the base color.

Therefore the primary color.

[oNWSo]

@PhreelanceSF Thats partly correct, in additive colouring, that is when you generate light (such as a computerscreen) CRIMSON is right, Red, Green and Blue (RGB) are the primaries.

With subtractive colours, which is when you have a surface partly absorb white light and then bounce the colour you see, Phreelance is right, Cyan (kinda blue), Magenta (kinda red) and Yellow (CMYK) are primaries.

[PhreelanceSF]

@oNWSo

I am talking about the colortheory as it applies to painting. Why it is important for a painter and how you can deal with it while painting.

What is important is the perception of color, and that that perception changes when the surrounding colors change. Very few people understand that. That's why painting is art. It's not a mathematical formula.

[CRIMSONxFROST]

@PhreelanceSF you're right, I got myself confused with the computer RGB for a sec.

[lemonzing234]

@PhreelanceSF Actually, you can. I'll explain, What CRIMSONxFROST was talking about was ADDITIVE color mixing, and you were talking about SUBTRACTIVE

And..

ADDITIVE= Possible because 255R+255G= Yellow.

[cheekyterier]

@CRIMSONxFROST no green is a primary colour in the light colour wheel

[PhoenixBaby96]

@CRIMSONxFROST well evidently you never took art classes when you were little, cause RED YELLOW AND BLUE are primary colors. secondary colors are orange green and purple red and green are complimentary colors so are yellow and purple along with orange and blue and even the NAPA logo has orange and blue and it looks great :) hope you liked my help

[CRIMSONxFROST]

@PhoenixBaby96 this is from such a long time ago, I can barely remember this conversation haha :) I looked it up and what you said is right.

[PhoenixBaby96]

@CRIMSONxFROST lol thx most people would call me dumbass, but thx :D

[quemacha]

Colors can have multiple complements; for example, pink stands out against blue, green, gold or brown.

[aerugo49]

combining 3 primaries are supposed to make a near black... but red, yellow, blue are *not* true primaries... magenta, yellow, cyan are....

[PhreelanceSF]

@aerugo49

Sure..it's a matter of semantics as well ;-)

But if I start talking about magenta and cyan the general public doesn't know what I mean.

[persiiica]

How too make BLACK ?

[TheXplane9user]

i thought all three make brown

[PhreelanceSF]

that's right..

[flamin88]

thanx :) do you mean all three together?

[PhreelanceSF]

You can darken any color by adding more blue, red and yellow. The more you add, the darker it gets. In the end it will be like black.

[flamin88]

how would you darken a grey without using a black, only using colours like blue purple green red etc?
